7-Chlorotryptophan

Description:

7-Chlorotryptophan is an amino acid derivative and a halogenated form of tryptophan, characterized by the presence of a chlorine atom at the 7-position of the indole ring. This compound is notable for its role in biochemical research and its potential applications in pharmaceuticals and biochemistry. It exhibits properties typical of amino acids, including the ability to participate in peptide bond formation and its involvement in protein synthesis. The presence of the chlorine atom can influence its reactivity and interactions with biological systems, potentially affecting enzyme activity and receptor binding. 7-Chlorotryptophan is often used as a building block in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds and can serve as a tool for studying tryptophan metabolism and its derivatives. Additionally, it may exhibit unique spectroscopic properties due to the halogen substitution, making it useful in analytical chemistry. As with many halogenated compounds, care should be taken regarding its handling and disposal due to potential environmental and health impacts.

7-Chlorotryptophan

CAS: 153-97-9

Tryptophan is an amino acid that is an essential building block for proteins, neurotransmitters, and hormones. It is also a precursor for the synthesis of vitamin B3. 7-Chlorotryptophan has been shown to inhibit the growth of bacteria by inhibiting their ability to synthesize proteins by interfering with the covalent enzyme that controls the reaction mechanism in plants. Tryptophan may also have anti-inflammatory properties due to its inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. The chlorinating and chloride groups on 7-chlorotryptophan are responsible for its bactericidal activity against Gram-positive bacteria.
